Bod - The Dating App For Immediate Rejects And Rebounds

Trending News: Bad Date? This App Let's You Find A New Match Within Minutes

Why Is This Important?

Long Story Short

Bod is a dating app dedicated to helping you find someone new, immediately after a bad date. It's the Plan B of dating apps. Who knows, you might find that special someone on the second try.

Long Story

You give yourself a nice clean shave, put on your freshest shirt, sprinkle a tad of cologne and you're off to meet that girl you've been chatting with on Tinder (or Match.com or Bumble or Bae or whatever). You meet her at the coffee shop/the park/bar (she's 20 minutes late) and you notice it right away — her profile photos were let's say, kind. Maybe it's that, or you just don't click. There's so many awkward silences and she flat out hates the things you're excited about. It's been 15 minutes and you already know — no freaking way.

We've all been there — if you haven't you haven't been on too many dates though apps. But before you order another beer to down out this awful date with delicious intoxicating bubbles, you wonder: what if I could just as easily jump out of this date and onto another, potentially better date? I mean, you didn't shave for nothing.

This is where bod comes in, a dating app dedicated to picking up the scraps of a failed date and transforming them into a quality connection. "Life is short, why settle?" is the app's slogan.

Bod is quite simple. Once you're done your date (or in the bathroom desparately looking for a way out), flick the app into "date mode" and it'll find matches within your vicinity — both those on failed dates and those who are just around. It'll also give you quick excuse strategies to GTFO of there.

Like every other app based on the Tinder formula, if you both swipe that you like each other, you can start messaging and try and recover this day/night. Who knows, maybe second time's a charge (or third, or fourth if you're super determined).

What's cool about bod is it knows what it is and hopefully it's users are lighthearted like that too. Cause hey, you know what, it's not going to be the next Tinder — basing something exactly on Tinder and expecting it to surpass it is a fool's dream. But it works off the other millions of dating apps out there and solves something no one wants to admit — bad dates happen to everyone.
